31 Day Card Challenge - Day 10

Hello.

The challenge for day 10 of the 31 Day Card Challenge is to use any technique to make your own background paper. I decided to use the emerging colour technique. I started by using my watercolour pens to colour a piece of watercolour paper. Then stamped and clear embossed over that using an arrow from Hot off the Press' Fun and Funky Arrow set. I rubbed black ink over the whole thing and then used tissue to remove excess ink. The sentiment was created using the Fun Alphabet by Papermania, and I coloured it in all different colours to match the multi-coloured arrows.

Columbia

Hello.

I used the last two of the Octopode Rocky Horror stamps for this card. Those arrows were embossed on a few scraps of paper, and I used a sentiment from Wink Wink Ink to finish.

I also wanted to share a picture of what I currently have on my nails. Ready for the Olympic opening ceremony tonight I have the colours of the rings.

Birthday fun

Hello.

I made this paper using the Fun and Funky arrows set by Hot of the Press. Once I'd made it I realised I didn't really want to cover it all up, so I came up a simple design for a card which would leave most of the paper showing. Both sentiments are from the Honey and Hugs range by Papermania. 'Birthday fun' is from the Sheep set and 'Fun fun fun!' is from the Owl set.
